Chapter 1737
When Love Comes Late
Facing Bennyâs threats, Stellaâs expression turned icy.
After containing her emotions for a moment, she spoke in a chilling tone.
âYouâve committed countless reckless acts.
Justice will find you sooner or later.
â
Benny just scoffed dismissively, âIâve nearly died several times, so I fear no punishment.
Instead of wasting your breath on me, you might want to consider your next steps should your husband never wake up.
â
With that, Benny turned and walked away, leaving Stella staring at his retreating figure until he vanished.
Suddenly drained, she nearly collapsed.
Fernando quickly steadied her, his voice laced with concern.
âAre you okay?â
Stella merely gave him a slow nod.
The strain of recent days had been immense, forcing her to maintain a facade of strength against Benny.
Now that the confrontation was over, the relief was overwhelming, and she realized just how exhausted she was.
Things had seemingly gone smoothly today, but it was no time for complacency.
Regaining her composure, Stella asked, âWhich projects has Benny halted?â
Fernando answered, âThere are two major ones: film and television, and clothing.
The clothing line at Prosperity Group was gaining momentum, and Matthew had plans to expand it internationally, starting with a partnership with Bella.
â
After a moment of thought, Stella decided to prioritize the clothing project.
It was a domain she knew well, and she was confident Bella would support her.
This approach not only offered a substantial opportunity for success, but also ensured that she kept advancing steadily.
She couldnât consider relinquishing control of Prosperity Group, not while Matthew was still unresponsive.
Her deepest hope was that when Matthew awoke, he would return to a thriving enterprise.
Stella shared her strategy with Fernando and instructed, âOrganize all the documents related to the previous clothing project and bring them to me.
â
âOf course.
If thereâs anything else you need, just tell me.
Iâll do whatever I can to assist,â Fernando responded earnestly.
Reassured by Fernandoâs support, Stella felt a weight Lift off her shoulders.
As she prepared to leave, another question occurred to her.
âWhoâs currently heading the marketing department?â
Given Bennyâs tendencies, it was Likely he had already placed one of his allies in that position.
âThe marketing director is Emery Morgan,â Fernando informed her.
âSheâs the daughter of Emil.
â
Stella paused, deep in thought.
Fernando added, âIt appears thereâs some sort of collaboration between Emil and Benny, though the specifics are unclear.
Iâm not familiar with Emeryâs character yet, so I canât provide a clear opinion on her.
â
This information seemed to align with Stellaâs suspicions.
âAre you considering dismissing her?â Fernando queried.
